To Whom It May Concern:

Mr. Joseph Schaneville is currently engaged in mental health services through my private
practice and has completed a thorough psychosocial assessment to determine his need for an
Emotional Support Animal as part of his overall treatment plan. I am familiar with his history
and with the functional limitations imposed by his psychological impairment, as defined by the
Diagnostic and Statistical Manual – Edition 5.

Mr. Schaneville’s dog, Rhett, a 70 lb Goldendoodle, currently provides emotional support by


providing tactile stimulation which successfully ameliorates the effects of his disability, so that
Mr. Schaneville can sleep, a major life activity, without substantial limitation, and is therefore
considered an Emotional Support Animal under the Fair Housing Act. If Mr. Schaneville could
not live with, nor be accompanied by his dog, his ability to sleep would be substantially limited.

Please make a reasonable accommodation so that Joseph Schaneville is permitted to live with
an Emotional Support Animal in his dwelling, despite any rules, policies, procedures or
regulations restricting or limiting animals so that Mr. Schaneville can enjoy the benefits of fair
housing, per the Fair Housing Act as amended in 1988 and the FHEO Notice-2020-01.
This letter expires on 02/11/2025, at which time Joseph Schaneville will be assessed for
continued need of an emotional support animal.

Sincerely,

[sig|req|signer1]
